Remove from heat. Blend in vanilla extract. If pie is to be finished with
meringue instead of Whipped Cream Topping, pour immediately into baked pie
shell. Spread meringue lightly on top, sealing to edge of crust to prevent
shrinking. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until delicately browned. Let cool at
room temperature.

Whipped Cream Topping
Instead of using meringue, this pie may be chilled thoroughly and topped with
sweetened whipped cream. Decorate with toasted nuts, if desired.
